Belvedere Palace and Museum Tour

Our guide , Annelie, was a real expert. We so enjoyed our time with her and learned so much. Not just about the art in the palace, but the architecture and history of Vienna. Her pacing was excellent throughout the tour. We never felt rushed and we were always able to stop and ask more questions. We very much enjoyed our time with her and would highly recommend.

She is extremely knowledgeable, excited by the subject matter and a pleasure to spend a morning tour with.

Lisle is great, very knowledgeable about the art and history of Vienna. She also tells many stories which deepened our understanding. She managed to boil down a huge art collection into 2+ hours of focused viewing, especially of Klimt and his period. And her description of the origins of the palace and Prince Eugen were great. Lisle is friendly, personable and very competent. She helped to spark our understanding of Vienna and Austria overall on our 1st day in the city!

It’s an additional 25 euro per person. The grounds are beautiful. I personally found it to be very expensive for a two hour tour.

Katarina was excellent! She was very detailed on how to run the tour and extremely knowledgeable of each and every room. The stories behind the painters and paintings were fascinating.

Beautiful, 15 minutes walk from Karlskirche Church, following Belverdere we went to the concert Belverdere is beautiful, the paintings are spectacular, the gardens beautiful. Book via the official website ‘imperial tickets NOT Weintickets !!! this company charge a huge commission. You do not need a guide, just arrive, we did however pay £5 each to download the Ap guide, which was very useful , sometimes a little tricky to use but easier than a guide. We walked to the Upper Belvedere first & took the tour it is a busy place due to its location, booking is essential. We then walked around the lower Belvedere smaller gallery, a lovely cafe The staff in the gallery/reception especially ‘Miguel’ from New Milton, Hampshire ! A great place if you time in Vienna is limited as close by The Vivaldi concert and Opera Take water as €4 is pricey & an umbrella

This was a brief visit in a 3 day trip in virnna, it was lovely to walk around the well preserved gardens and to the exterior of the palace which was in a central spot in vienna..worth it just to chill, people watch and see another glorious vienna building

The skip the line tickets are worth the extra expense. Best to visit during low season as it gets very crowded. Otherwise it is an extraordinary display of opulence, art, design tastefully done. It is amazing what people could do when they were not preoccupied with social media, looking at their phones 24 x 7. Highly recommend especially for the younger generations. A guided tour or an audio guide rental is highly recommended to understand the history of the building and description of various art and artists of the era displayed.

The Belvedere is a must if you're looking for Gustav Klimt works of art, many other well known artists are displayed here. It is very busy and booking in advance is advised. It will take upto 2 hours. Some nice walks in the gardens will finish your day at the Belvedere

We really lucked out with our guide. Stephen was so knowledgeable and Informative. His details made the art so much more interesting and alive. I will never see Gustav Klimt's paintings the same way again.
